I had such a blast Vanessa! The food tasted really good. I’m learning so much about nutrition on the way too. Here’s to the next one 😁 😋.
Claire Barker, Group Head of Corporate Comms, Brooks MacDonald
Colleagues were very engaged, with the ingredients and chopping boards at the ready. What followed was an hour of fun on camera as we cooked a very simple but very healthy recipe together. The impact was instant judging from the conversations in the office that followed and continue, with swapping recipes, ideas, and spices.
